Brendan Kennelly's new version...is probably the most substantial Irish drama since W. B. Yeats was writing ....This is, of course, a political tragedy. Antigone, in deciding to bury her disgraced dead brother, is playing true to the laws of the gods and to the instincts of the family. But she is playing against the man-made law of Creon, who believes, as he must, that civil law and order must be the saving of society in Thebes"" -Irish Times.
